   <para>
    There is no support for multi-byte character sets.
    This will be considered, depending on community requirements,
    in a Unicode-enabled version of PHP.

  <title>SDO Limitations</title>
  <para>
   The following SDO 2.0 concepts are not supported in the current 
   PHP implementation.
   It is not necessarily the case that these will all be added over time.
   Their inclusion will depend on community requirements.

    Bi-directional relationships.

    The Helper classes defined in SDO 2.0 are not directly implemented. 
    However equivalent function is provided in a more natural way for PHP. 
    For example the function of <command>CopyHelper::copy()</command> 
    is provided by applying the PHP
    <link linkend='language.oop5.cloning'>clone</link> keyword to a data object.
